Answer:
The flagpole's shadow is 16.875 feet longer than the man's shadow
Step-by-step explanation:
The total length of the shadow is expressed by taking its actual length by a factor that depends on the position of the sun which is constant for the man too. The expression is as follows;
Height of the shadow=actual height of the flagpole×factor
where;
length of the flagpole's shadow=22.5 feet
actual height of the flagpole=32 feet
factor=f
replacing;
22.5=32×f
32 f=22.5
f=22.5/32
f=0.703125
Using this factor in the expression below;
Length of man's shadow=actual height of man×factor
where;
length of man's shadow=m
actual height of man=8 feet
factor=0.703125
replacing;
length of man's shadow=8×0.703125=5.625 feet
Determine how much longer the flagpole's shadow is as follows;
flagpoles shadow-man's shadow=22.5-5.625=16.875 feet
The flagpole's shadow is 16.875 feet longer than the man's shadow
Step-by-step explanation:
making m the subject first by dividing through by 4
from the question, given n = -1 ,0 ,1
so when n= -1
when n=0
when n=1
Assuming the interest is simple interest, as opposed to compound interest,
putting all points in equation of option B satisfies the table . so ans is option B
